One interesting fact about the Iriver (don't know if it applies to other readers) is that, if you name a file "Author - Title" or merely "Title" it will appear in the long book list. If you name it "Title - Author" it won't.
We've discussed how to organise books in the reader in the Iriver forum. No doubt others have done that in other reader forums also. So far I have created a folder for each author on the Iriver, but I retain the "Author - Title" format for the title, since sometimes you want to search on author name, and if the book is invisible, it doesn't help! However, I'm a little interested in some of the suggestions in this thread, and some people might just be getting a PM from me soon!
And yes, we're all a bit pissed off that at least the Iriver doesn't wrap the file name so you never know which of an author's books you are looking at, if you don't open it up. I suppose one could use some kind of author code, like, say, JA for Jane Austen, so that some at least of the book title appears, but that's a lot of hassle.
